Translator required for translation from English into Italian for an online magazine (ongoing)

Posted: Sep 23, 2016 02:03

Description

We are looking for reliable and quick translators to translate articles from English into Italian for an online magazine. We are looking for a pool of people who are able to translate content quickly and efficiently. If shortlisted we would be interested in offering you a long term collaboration with payment at the end of the month.

Skills in journalism not required since the candidates will only be required to translate English articles already selected by the editorial board of the magazine. We would though need skilled translators that are not only able to correctly translate the content, but can make sure that the cultural aspects specific to the English articles are understandable to our Italian readers.
Italian native speakers preferred, but the position is open to non-native speaker as well since knowledge of contemporary British and American culture is necessary to properly translate the articles.

Basic computer skills required.

If selected you will be asked to translate one article (around 500words) and if we are satisfied with the result we will offer you an ongoing collaboration. Price can be agreed after this stage and will be based on the amount of output produced per month.

UPDATE: the client has requested freelancers to make their best offer for a 500word article (30$ is just a placeholder). Also please notice that the request has risen from 4 to 6 freelancers as the client has been impressed with the quality of proposals received through upwork.
The client looks forward to deciding before the end of September.
